 ents Slow Run, winner of Best Canadian Feature at the Canadian Artists '6
 8 competition. Filmmaker Laurence Kardish will be in attendance.Slow Run i
 s a raw, lyrical portrait of New York City as seen through the eyes of a 
 young Canadian exile. The filmmaker, Larry Kardish, at 23 years old, ha
 d made his first and only film as a candid love letter to the city, a lit
 any of fascinations and complaints. Kardish blends dreamlike street photog
 raphy, intimate portraiture, and a rhapsodic monologue performed by the 
 filmmaker's fictional surrogate, a young Canadian ex-pat (Saul Rubinek in
  his first film role). The narration accounts the lives and relationships 
 of a group of young Bohemians, and unfolds in parallel to the imagery rat
 her than in dialogue with it, creating a tension between voice and vision
 , presence and distance.When Slow Run was released, Jonas Mekas asked, 
 'is Larry Kardish a lyrical realist?' It is a film of such contraditions: 
 romantic and disenchanted, spontaneous and composed. Slow Run captures a 
 fleeting moment in time—New York in its grand beauty, as seen by an alien
 .Slow Run was recently restored by Canadian film scholar Stephen Broomer,
  who has published the film on Blu-ray disc through Black Zero, a home vi
 deo label that specializes in Canadian underground and experimental films.
  Copies of this film and others in the Black Zero catalogue will be availa
 ble at the screening.TRT: 90 minutes, with an introduction by filmmaker L
 aurence Kardish and film historian Stephen BroomerAD HOC aims to rethink w
 hat an experience of cinema can be. We seek to reposition historical landm
 arks and buried treasures within the on-going tradition of experimental an
 d other non- commercial modes of filmmaking, drawing on work from Toronto
 , throughout Canada, and internationally. Within these parameters, we a
 spire to diversity in programming, as well as to multimedia and interdisc
